Message to Shareholders
Global economy continued to recover on a lower-than-expected pace as it was in 2014. Except for U.S. who kept up the momentum, others including Euro Zone, Japan, China as well as emerging economies were dissatisfied the previously envisioned. With regard to Taiwan, as export performance, private consumption and capital expenditure were impacted by the global economy, the economic growth rate was held back to 0.75%, the worst in recent six years.
Despite the decelerating economic growth pace across the world and increased volatility in financial market which led to lower-than-expected revenue from treasury operations, growth in Corporate Banking, Retail Banking and Wealth Management Business were outperformed. Profit before tax of the Bank reached TWD30.25 billion while financial position and asset quality remained at satisfactory level, with NPL ratio at 0.08%; coverage ratio at 1,723%; capital adequacy ratio at 13.16% and Common Equity Tier I Ratio at 11.23%, retained the preeminent position in banking industry.
With respect to global presence which focused on China and Asia Pacific region, the Bank has successively established its Suzhou Branch, Wujiang Sub-Branch, Kunshan Sub-Branch and Ningbo Branch in China following the stage of gradual opening of cross-strait financial services. In addition, by means of establishing strategic alliance and business relationship with leading Chinese banks, RMB related business volume, as well as the asset pool, have shown substantial growth. Looking ahead, the Bank will make every endeavor to entrench the service network in Asia Pacific market with the intension to build solid asset and profit pool from OBU and overseas service network.
Operation Results of 2015
I. Global & Domestic Economic Dynamics
1. Economic Growth
In 2015, the developed countries presented modest recovery while overshadowed by decelerating growth in emerging countries, as a result, the global economic growth kept at a slower-than-expected pace for a second consecutive year. To look into 2016, IMF suggests a 3.4% GDP growth rate for global economy, from which modest growth is expected for some specific advanced economies and a bottom-up growth pattern is expected for emerging countries. Nevertheless, the expectation of US dollar’s appreciation along with the downturn and rebalancing risk concerns over China, which may expand the instability in global financial and commodity market, cast a shadow on brightening global prospect.
As for Taiwan, in 2015 as a whole, the real GDP rose merely a margin up. As of 2016, since the Legislative Yuan has announced budgetary increase for infrastructure and R&D investment, it is expected to move up the domestic demand and export volume. The Directorate-General of Budget, Accounting and Statistics (DGBAS) forecasts GDP growth rate at 1.47%. Nonetheless, cautions are warranted for implications from anticipated tighter U.S. monetary policy, risk arising from economic downside and the supply chain localization in China, and the volatility of oil and commodity price.
2. Financial Market
The Central Bank of Republic of China (Taiwan) maintained the major interest rate references stable until the third quarter of 2015, where economic leading indicators suggested possible economic distress ahead. In light of the signaled concerns, the Central Bank announced 0.125% interest rate cut on re-discount rate on September and December separately to 1.625%, after six and a half years of no interest rate adjustment. The average overnight call-loan rate also dropped to 0.275% by the end of December 2015.
With regard to NT dollar exchange rate, the expectation of “Shanghai-Taiwan Stock Connect” led to NT dollar appreciation from April to July 2015, and then it depreciated after Federal Reserve raised interest rate and signaled an upward trend. Affected by this confluence, the average exchange rate of NT dollar for 2015 was at NT$31.80 to one US dollar, depreciated by 6.4% compared to NT$29.77 for 2014, the largest depreciation recorded after 2012.

Development Strategies
Extend the product line and layout of International Banking Services through the overseas network.
Introduce new services to existing Global eBanking platform to retain the stickiness of the customer.
Enhance credit risk monitoring function to upgrade the operational efficiency.
Empower current wealth management platform and integrate messages on social media with physical service network to create new business opportunity in Digital Finance.
Pursue strategic alliance or equity participation to broaden operational capacity worldwide.
Collaborate with ventures targeting in areas of Fin-Tech, Big Data Analytics, Cloud Service and Internet of Things to improve the level of financial technology adoption of the Bank.
Strengthen the AML/CFT training sessions to staffs and compliance officers of overseas branches to mitigate the regulatory gap and reduce the compliance cost.
Major Regulatory Changes and Influences
Financial Supervisory Commission aggressively promoted several new regulatory frameworks encouraging product innovation in financial institution, such as heralding the Bank 3.0 scheme and deregulating online banking, mobile payment and third-party payment businesses on January 2015, and allowing the financial holding company and banks to 100% invest in financial technologies startups in order to facilitate its own Fin-Tec resolutions on September 2015. All of those could create more room for banks to promote business and make profit.
On March 2015, to enforce the credit risk control over loan exposure to China, the Financial Supervisory Commission regulated the local banks to maintain a prudent credit risk buffer by making at least 1.5% provisions against loans to China by end of 2015, and all the call loans and due from banks as well incurred over 3 months should be 100% summed up to the exposure. The regulation would impact the net income of the banks in the short terms; however it could fortify the risk management system in the long run.

Bank Profile
Historical Overview
Mega International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. (Mega ICBC) has come into being as a result of the merger of The International Commercial Bank of China and Chiao Tung Bank, effective on August 21, 2006. Both banks have been proud of their longtime histories of outstanding track records in our country.
In 1971, The Bank of China was privatized to become The International Commercial Bank of China Co., Ltd. (ICBC), whose origin dates back to the Ta Ching Bank and its predecessor, the Hupu Bank (the bank under the finance arm of the imperial court in the Ching Dynasty). The Bank of China had been entrusted with the mission to serve as an agent of the Treasury and a note-issuing bank before the establishment of the Central Bank of China in 1928. The Bank of China was designated as a licensed specialized bank for international trade and foreign exchange thereafter. Taking advantage of its specialization in foreign exchange, worldwide network of outlets and correspondence banks, superb bank assets, and excellent business performance, ICBC has become a top-notch bank in the Republic of China.
Set up five years before the founding of the Republic of China, Chiao Tung Bank Co., Ltd. (CTB) had also been delegated to act as an agent of the government coffer and a note-issuing bank in concert with the Bank of China at the outset of the Republic. Transforming from a licensed bank for industries in 1928, an industrial bank in 1975, and a development bank in 1979, CTB turned from a state-controlled bank into a privately–owned one in 1999. It has engaged in loan extensions for medium- and long-term development, innovation and guidance investment (equity investment), and venture capital ever since. For years, CTB has made significant contributions to the improvement of industrial structure and the promotion of the upgrading of industry by assisting in the development of strategic and vital industries in line with the economic policy and the economic development plan of the government.
CTB and International Securities Company formed the CTB Financial Holding Company in 2002. Late on, Chung Hsing Bills Finance Corporation and Barits International Securities Company came under the financial umbrella. On December 31, 2002, Chung Kuo Insurance Company and ICBC joined forces with the Company to form a conglomerate named Mega Financial Holding Company.
With a view to enlarging the business scale and increasing the market share, ICBC and CTB formally merged into one bank under the name of Mega International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. on August 21, 2006. By the end of 2015, the Bank has 107 branches at home, and 22 branches, 5 sub-branch, and 4 representative offices (including marketing office) abroad. Together with the network are wholly-owned bank subsidiaries in Thailand and Canada, along with their branches, bringing the number of overseas outposts to 39 in total. It has manpower 5,478 and an aggregate paid-in capital of NT$85.362 billion.

Taiwanese Banking Industry & Market Overview
In 2015, domestic banks reported a record high of pretax profits exceeding NT$360 billion, breaking the record of over NT$300 billion kept in 2014. Non-performing loan ratio of domestic banks stood at 0.23% at the year end, dropped from the previous year’s 0.25%, while coverage ratio rose to 555.43% from 516.38% at the same period. This suggested that the assets quality of the domestic banks stayed in a more satisfactory level.
Domestic banks’ total loans increased to NT$22.6 trillion or 3.05% in 2015, slightly lower than 4.56% in 2014. By sectors, loans to government-owned businesses shrunk 3.40% compared to 2014, while loans to private sector grew 2.42% up to NT$9.6 trillion, as the private sector yielded better return. Among consumer loans, housing loans continued to grow by NT$265.3 billion, up 4.52% to NT$6.1 trillion at the end of 2015. However, the housing loans and construction loan dropped by 0.98% to NT$1.6 trillion, due to negative outlook for real estate market and forthcoming tax rate raising over property.
Credit cards in circulation increased by 3.02% in 2015, while card loans dropped by 4.34%. Since Financial Supervisory Committee led to cut the ceiling rate, the scale of card loans could be shrunk further.
I. Positive Factors
Strong capital buffer and sound asset quality of Taiwanese banks bolster its’ capability to response to financial volatility.
The regulatory authorities have deregulated the banking business to a considerable scale, which could broaden scopes of financial service and products, and increase income resources.
Taiwanese banks, which have built up strong franchise and dense service networks in Southeast Asia, will benefit from the burgeoning financing need in the region, thus overseas income growth is forecasted to accelerate.
Following Fed’s interest raising decision, the increasing USD interest rate spread will improve the profitability of the banks.
II. Negative Factors
Domestic financial market’s competition remains fierce, which constraints loan spread broadening, and limited profit growth.
While real estate market is gradually cooling down, there is little room for related loan business to expand, along with rising credit risk.
Given domestics banks’ high exposure toward China, diminished Chinese growth momentum and tougher operating environment could curb overseas earning growth, and erode asset quality.
The GDP growth rate of Taiwan in 2016 is forecasted at a relative low 1.5% which will affect the retail consumption as well as profit margin of businesses.
III. Winning Strategies
Maintaining extra capital conservation buffer to broaden global presence so as to seize the business opportunities in better-yielded international syndicated loans and offshore banking business.
Employing in wealth management product innovation to suffice investment needs and boost fee revenue.
Fertilizing cyber security human capital through on-job transition training in response to the forthcoming business requirement.
Intensifying risk management and crisis management framework.
IV. Mega ICBC’s Niche
Mega ICBC is irreplaceable in terms of foreign remittances, and it enjoys competitive edge in foreign exchange business. For example, the Bank’s New York Branch is the only Taiwanese bank that simultaneously participates in CHIPS, Fedwire, and ACH as a member bank.
Mega ICBC owns expansive global presence, and international banking expertise, enhancing the bank’s diversification and profitability.
Mega ICBC maintains the highest foreign deposit balance among domestic banks ever since.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Mega International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Mega International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. (the “Bank”) and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Bank’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Rules Governing the Audit of Financial Statements of Financial Institutions by Certified Public Accountants” and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Mega International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and their financial performance and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Public Banks” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC).

1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
(1) Mega International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. (the “Bank”; formerly The International Commercial Bank of China Co., Ltd.) was reorganized on December 17, 1971 in accordance with the “Law for International Commercial Bank of China” as announced by the President of the Republic of China (R.O.C.) (which was then abolished in December, 2005) and other related regulations. As of December 31, 2002, the Bank became an unlisted wholly owned subsidiary of Mega Financial Holding Co. Ltd., through a share swap transaction. With the view to enlarging business scale and increasing market share, the Bank entered into a merger agreement with Chiao Tung Bank Co., Ltd. on August 21, 2006, the effective date of the merger. The Bank was later renamed Mega International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. Mega Financial Holding Co., Ltd. holds 100% equity interest in the Bank and is the Bank’s ultimate parent company.
(2) The Bank engages in the following operations: (a) commercial banking operations authorized by the R.O.C. Banking Law; (b) foreign exchange and related operations; (c) import and export financing and guarantees; (d) financial operations related to international trade; (e) trust operations; (f) investment services on consignments by clients; (g) loan operations, including mid-term to long-term development loan and guarantee operations; (h) venture capital activities; and (i) other related operations approved by the R.O.C. government.
(3) The Bank’s business and operations are widely managed by the head office. The Bank expands its network by opening branches at key locations in both domestic and foreign markets. The Bank was incorporated as company limited by shares under the provisions of the Company Law of the Republic of China (R.O.C.). As of December 31, 2015, the Bank had 107 domestic branches, 22 overseas branches, 5 overseas sub-branches, and 4 overseas representative offices.
(4) The Trust Department of the Bank is primarily responsible for planning, management and operation of trust investment businesses regulated by the R.O.C. Banking Law.
(5) As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Bank and its subsidiaries had 5,647and 5,600 employees, respectively.
2. THE DATE OF AUTHORIZATION FOR ISSUANCE OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND PROCEDURES FOR AUTHORIZATION
These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on March 25 2016.
3. APPLICATION OF NEW STANDARDS, AMENDMENTS AND INTERPRETATIONS
(1) Effect of the adoption of new issuances of or amendments to International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission (“FSC”)
According to Financial-Supervisory-Securities-Auditing No. 1030010325 issued on April 3, 2014, commencing 2015, The Bank shall adopt the 2013 version of IFRSs (not including IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’) as endorsed by the FSC and the "Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Public Banks" effective January 1, 2015 (collectively referred herein as “the 2013 version of IFRSs”) in preparing the consolidated financial statements. The impact of adopting the 2013 version of IFRSs is listed below:
A. IAS 19 (revised), ‘Employee benefits’
The revised standard makes amendments that net interest amount, calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit asset or liability, replaces the finance charge and expected return on plan assets. The revised standard eliminates the accounting policy choice that the actuarial gains and losses could be recognised based on corridor approach or recognised in profit or loss. The revised standard requires that the actuarial gains and losses can only be recognised immediately in other comprehensive income when incurred. Past service cost will be recognised immediately in the period incurred and will no longer be amortised using straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested. An entity is required to recognise termination benefits at the earlier of when the entity can no longer withdraw an offer of those benefits and when it recognises any related restructuring costs, rather than when the entity is demonstrably committed to a termination. Additional disclosures are required for defined benefit plans.
The Bank recognised previously unrecognised past service cost by increasing provisions for employee benefits by NT$332,980 and NT$353,922, increasing deferred income tax assets by NT$56,607 and NT$60,167, and decreasing retained earnings by NT$276,373 and NT$293,755 at December 31 and January 1, 2014, respectively.
Operating expenses would be decreased by $20,942, income tax expense would be increased by NT $3,560 for the year ended December 31, 2014, respectively. The basic and dilutive earnings per share for the same period were not influenced.
B. IAS 1, ‘Presentation of financial statements’
The amendment requires entities to separate items presented in OCI classified by nature into two groups on the basis of whether they are potentially reclassifiable to profit or loss subsequently when specific conditions are met. If the items are presented before tax then the tax related to each of the two groups of OCI items (those that might be reclassified and those that will not be reclassified) must be shown separately. Accordingly, the Bnak and its subsidiaries will adjust its presentation of the statement of comprehensive income.

C. IFRS 13, ‘Fair value measurement’
The standard defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The standard sets out a framework for measuring fair value from market participants’ perspective, and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. For non-financial assets only, fair value is determined based on the highest and best use of the asset. Based on the Bank and its subsidiaries’s assessment, the adoption of the standard has no significant impact on its consolidated financial statements, and the Bank and its subsidiaries will disclose additional information about fair value measurements accordingly.
D. IFRS 12, ‘Disclosure of interests in other entities’
The standard integrates the disclosure requirements for subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated structured entities. And, the Bank and its subsidiaries will disclose additional information about its interests in consolidated entities and unconsolidated entities accordingly.
E. Disclosures - Transfers of financial assets (amendments to IFRS 7)
The amendment enhances quantitative and qualitative disclosures for all transferred financial assets that are not derecognised and for any continuing involvement in transferred assets, existing at the reporting date.
The amendment increases quantitative and qualitative disclosures on all transferred financial assets, for the Bank and its subsidiaries.
F. Disclosures - Offsetting of financial assets (amendments to IFRS 7)
The amendment requires an entity, at the end of the reporting period, disclose information to enable users of its financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on the entity’s financial position. These disclosures also apply to recognised financial instruments that are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement, irrespective of whether they are set off in accordance with IAS 32.
The amendment increases quantitative and qualitative disclosures on recognised financial instruments, namely enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements, for the Bank and its subsidiaries.
(2) Effect of new issuances of or amendments to IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC but not yet adopted by the Bank and its subsidiaries
None.

(2) Basis for preparation
Except for financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value, Defined benefit liabilities recognised based on the net amount of pension fund assets less present value of defined benefit obligation, and available-for-sale financial assets measured at fair value, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The analysis of expense is classified based on the nature of expenses.
The management has to make certain significant accounting estimates based on their professional judgment and decide the accounting policy according to the IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC. Any change in the assumption could result in a significant change in the financial statements. The management of the Bank and its subsidiaries believes that the assumptions used in the consolidated statements are appropriate. For highly complicated matters, matters requiring high level of judgment, significant judgment that could have an impact on the consolidated financial statements and estimate of uncertain resource, please refer to Note 5 for further details.
(3) Basis for preparation of consolidated financial statements
A. The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Bank and its subsidiaries are prepared in conformity with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Public Banks”.

In addition, the Bank and its subsidiaries’ financial statements are prepared in the same reporting period. The accounts on the accompanying consolidated financial statements are not categorized into current and non-current items. The related accounts are properly categorized according to the nature of each accounts, and sequenced by their liquidity.
The consolidated financial statements of the Bank and its subsiaries include financial information of all consolidated branches and the parent company for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.
Subsidiaries are all entities of which the Bank holds directly or indirectly more than 50% of the total voting shares and over which the Bank has controlling power and the Bank has the power to govern the financial and operating policies where the Bank may gain profit from the activities of the branches. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible have been considered when assessing whether the Bank controls another entity.
Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains or losses on transactions between companies within the Bank and its subsidiaries are eliminated from the consolidated financial statements.
Transactions and events under similar situation should adopt consistent accounting policies and valuation method in preparing consolidated financial statements. If the accounting policies of the subsidiaries are different from the accounting policies used in the consolidated financial statements, adjustments will be made in relation to the financial statements of the subsidiaries to ensure the consistency between accounting policies of the affiliated entities and those used in the consolidated financial statements.

(2) Basis for preparation
Except for financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value, Defined benefit liabilities recognised based on the net amount of pension fund assets less present value of defined benefit obligation, and available-for-sale financial assets measured at fair value, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The analysis of expense is classified based on the nature of expenses.
The management has to make certain significant accounting estimates based on their professional judgment and decide the accounting policy according to the IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC. Any change in the assumption could result in a significant change in the financial statements. The management of the Bank and its subsidiaries believes that the assumptions used in the consolidated statements are appropriate. For highly complicated matters, matters requiring high level of judgment, significant judgment that could have an impact on the consolidated financial statements and estimate of uncertain resource, please refer to Note 5 for further details.
(3) Basis for preparation of consolidated financial statements
A. The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Bank and its subsidiaries are prepared in conformity with the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Public Banks”. The Bank and its subsidiaries prepares the consolidated financial statements by aggregating the Bank and its subsidiaries’ assets, liabilities, revenues and gains, and expenses and losses accounts, which have been eliminated versus owners’ equity during the consolidation. In addition, the Bank and its subsidiaries’ financial statements are prepared in the same reporting period. The accounts on the accompanying consolidated financial statements are not categorized into current and non-current items. The related accounts are properly categorized according to the nature of each accounts, and sequenced by their liquidity.
The consolidated financial statements of the Bank and its subsiaries include financial information of all consolidated branches and the parent company for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.
Subsidiaries are all entities of which the Bank holds directly or indirectly more than 50% of the total voting shares and over which the Bank has controlling power and the Bank has the power to govern the financial and operating policies where the Bank may gain profit from the activities of the branches. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible have been considered when assessing whether the Bank controls another entity.
Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains or losses on transactions between companies within the Bank and its subsidiaries are eliminated from the consolidated financial statements.
Transactions and events under similar situation should adopt consistent accounting policies and valuation method in preparing consolidated financial statements. If the accounting policies of the subsidiaries are different from the accounting policies used in the consolidated financial statements, adjustments will be made in relation to the financial statements of the subsidiaries to ensure the consistency between accounting policies of the affiliated entities and those used in the consolidated financial statements.
B. The consolidated financial statements include the following directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries.

(4) Foreign currency translations
A. Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Bank and its subsidiaries’ entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in New Taiwan Dollars, which is the Bank’s functional and the Bank and its subsidiaries’ presentation currency.
B. Transactions and balances
The transactions denominated in foreign currency or to be settled in foreign currency are translated into a functional currency at the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the underlying foreign currency on the date of the transaction.
Foreign currency monetary items should be reported using the closing rate (market exchange rate) at the date of each balance sheet. When multiple exchange rates are available for use, they should be reported using the rate that would be used to settle the future cash flows of the foreign currency transactions or balances at the measurement date. Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at historical cost should be reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency non-monetary items measured at fair value should be reported at the rate that existed when the fair values were determined.
Exchange differences arising when foreign currency transactions are settled or when monetary items are translated at rates different from those at which they were translated when initially recognised or in previous financial statements are reported in profit or loss in the period.
If a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognised in other comprehensive income, any foreign exchange component of that gain or loss is also recognised in other comprehensive income. Conversely, if a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognised in profit or loss, any foreign exchange component of that gain or loss is also recognised in profit or loss.
C. Translation of foreign operations
The operating results and financial position of the entire Bank and its subsidiaries’ entities in the consolidated financial statements that have a functional currency (which is not the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
(A) Assets and liabilities presented are translated at the Bank and its subsidiaries’ closing exchange rate at the date of that balance sheet;
(B) The profit and loss presented is translated by the average exchange rate in the period (except for the situation that the exchange rate on the trade date shall be adopted when the exchange rate fluctuate rapidly); and
(C) All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.
The translation differences arising from above processes are recognised as ‘Cumulative translation differences of foreign operations’ under equity items.
(5) Cash and cash equivalents
“Cash and cash equivalents” in the consolidated balance sheet includes cash on hand, due from other banks, short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amount of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. In respect of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheet, due from the central bank and call loans to bank meeting the definition of cash and cash equivalents as stated in IAS No.7 “Cash Flow Statements”, and securities purchased under resale agreements meeting the definition of cash and cash equivalents as stated in IAS No. 7 “Cash Flow Statements” as endorsed by the FSC.
(6) Bills and bonds under repurchase or resale agreements
The transactions of bills and bonds with a condition of repurchase agreement or resell agreement are accounted for under the financing method. The interest expense and interest income are recognised as incurred at the date of sale and purchase and the agreed period of sale and purchase. The repo trade liabilities, bond liabilities, reverse repo trade bills and bond investments are recognised at the date of sale or purchase.
(7) Financial assets or liabilities
The financial assets and liabilities of the Bank and its subsidiaries including derivatives are recognised in the consolidated balance sheet and are properly classified in accordance with IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC.
A. Financial assets
The IFRSs as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission apply to the entire Bank and its subsidiaries’ financial assets, which are classified into four categories: loans and receivables, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, available-for-sale financial assets and held-to-maturity financial assets.
(A) A regular way purchase or sale
Financial assets that are purchased or sold on a regular way purchase or sale basis should be recognised and derecognised using trade date accounting or settlement date accounting. The uniform accounting principles should be applied in the accounting for purchase and sale of financial assets of the same type. All the Bank and its subsidiaries’ financial assets are accounted for using trade date accounting.
(B) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.
There are two types of loans and receivables: one is originated by the Bank and its subsidiaries; the other is not originated by the Bank and its subsidiaries. Loans and receivables originated by the entity refer to the direct provision by the Group of money, merchandise or services to debtors, and loans and receivables not originated by the Group are loans and receivables other than those originated by the Group.
30Mega ICBC
-30-
Loans and receivables are initially recognised at fair value, which includes the price of transaction, significant costs of transaction, significant handling fees paid or received, discount and premium, etc., and subsequently measured using the effective interest method. However, if the effect of discount is insignificant, following the “Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Public Banks”, loans and receivables can be measured at initial amount.
Interest accruing on loans and receivables is recognised as ‘interest revenue’. An impairment loss is recognised when there is an objective evidence of impairment on loans and receivables. Allowance for impairment is a deduction to carrying amount of loans and receivables, which is under the ‘allowance for bad debts and reserve for guarantee liabilities’ account.
(C) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss if they are acquired principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing or gaining profit in the short-term, or if they are derivative instruments. These financial assets are initially recognised at fair value.
Financial assets that meet one of the following criteria are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition:
a. Hybrid (combined) contracts; or
b. They eliminate or significantly reduce a measurement or recognition inconsistency; or
c. They are managed and their performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy.
Any changes in fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition are recognised under the ‘gain/loss on financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss’ account in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
(D) Held-to-maturity financial assets
Held-to-maturity financial assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity date that the Bank and its subsidiaries have the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity other than those that meet the definition of loans and receivables, designated as available-for-sale financial assets and those that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition by subsidiaries.
Interest accruing on held-to-maturity financial assets is recognised as ‘interest revenue’. An impairment loss is recognised when there is an objective evidence of impairment on financial assets. Impairment loss is a deduction to carrying amount of financial assets, which is recognised under the ‘impairment loss on financial assets’ account.
(E) Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are not classified in held-to-maturity financial assets, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and loans and receivables. Financial assets and liabilities that are attributed to equity and debt investments on initial recognition are assessed at fair value. Transaction costs which are attributable to the acquisition should be capitalized.
Available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income. When the financial asset is no longer recognised, the cumulative unrealized gain or loss that was previously recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit or loss.
An impairment loss is recognised when there is an objective evidence of impairment. If financial assets have not been derecognised, accumulated impairment loss related to the financial assets that was previously recognised in other comprehensive income shall be reclassified to profit or loss. Impairment loss of an investment in an equity instrument recognised in profit or loss shall not be reversed through profit or loss. Any subsequent increases in fair value of an investment in an equity instrument are recognised in other comprehensive income. If the impairment loss of bond investments decreases with objective evidence indicating that an impairment loss has been incurred after the impairment is recognised, the impairment amount is reversed and recognised in current profit and loss.
Equity instruments with no quoted price in an active market are initially recognised at fair value plus acquisition or issuance cost. The fair value can be reasonably estimated when the following criteria are met at the balance sheet date: (a) the variability in the range of reasonable fair value estimate is not significant for that equity instrument; or (b) probabilities of the various estimates within the range can be reasonably assessed and used in estimating fair value.
(F) Other financial assets
Other financial assets include investments in debt instruments without active market, overdue receivables not from lending, bill of exchange negotiated and financial assets measured at cost.
a. Debt investments with no active market
Investments in debt instruments without active market are initially recognised at fair value on the trade date plus transaction costs of acquisition or issuance. Disposal gain or loss is recognised when such investments are derecognised. Bond investments without active market are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
b. Financial assets carried at cost
Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured or derivatives that are linked to and must be settled by delivery of such unquoted equity instruments are presented in ‘financial assets measured at cost’.
31 Annual Report 2015
-31-
B. Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities held by the Bank and its subsidiaries comprise financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (including financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition) and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost.
(A) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
This category includes financial liabilities held for trading or financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition.
A financial liability shall be classified as held for trading, if it is incurred principally for the purpose of repurchasing it in the near term; or on initial recognition, is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that are managed together and for which there is evidence of a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking. A derivative is also classified as held for trading, except for a derivative that is a financial guarantee contract or a designated and effective hedging instrument. Financial liability held for trading also includes the obligations of delivery of financial assets borrowed by the seller. Above financial liability is shown as “financial liability at fair value through profit or loss” in the consolidated balance sheet.
At initial recognition, it is not revocable if a debt instrument is designated at fair value through profit and loss. When the fair value method is adopted, the main contract and the embedded derivative need not be recognised respectively.
Any changes in fair value of financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition are recognised under the ‘gain/loss on financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss’ account in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
(B) Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost
All other financial liabilities that are not classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are classified as financial liabilities measured at amortized cost.
C. Determination of fair value
Fair value and level information of financial instruments are provided in Note 7.
D. Derecognition of financial instruments
The Bank and its subsidiaries derecognizes a financial asset when one of the following conditions is met:
(A) The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset expires.
(B) The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset have been transferred and the Bank and its subsidiaries has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset.
(C) The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset have been transferred; however, it has not retained control of the financial asset.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
In case of securities lending or borrowing by the Bank and its subsidiaries or provision of bonds or stocks as security for repo trading, the Bank and its subsidiaries does not derecognize the financial asset, because substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are still retained in the Bank and its subsidiaries.
(8) Offsetting financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and reported in the net amount in the balance sheet when (A) there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and (B) there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
(9) Financial asset-evaluation, provision and reversal of impairment losses
A. The Bank and its subsidiaries would presume that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and recognize the impairment losses only if there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired as a result of a loss event that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset and that loss event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets.
B. The criteria that the Bank and its subsidiaries use to determine whether there is objective evidence of an impairment loss is as follows:
(A) Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;
(B) A breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;
(C) The Bank and its subsidiaries, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, granted the borrower a concession that a lender would not otherwise consider;
(D) It becomes probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization;
(E) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;
(F) Observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial asset in the group, including adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers in the group or national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the group;
32Mega ICBC
-32-
(G) Information about significant changes with an adverse effect that have taken place in the technology, market, economic or legal environment in which the issuer operates, and indicates that the cost of the investment in the equity instrument may not be recovered; or
(H) A significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument below its cost.
(I) Others are implemented in accordance with the Bank and its subsidiaries’ internal policies.
C. The assessment methods of impairment on loans and receivables are based on two categories: individual and collective assessments. Individual assessments are classified as different groups based on whether there is objective evidence of significant impairment of the asset or whether the individual asset has to be specially supervised. If no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, the asset will be classified into a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics for collective assessments.
D. After assessed impairment of loans and receivables, the Bank and its subsidiaries recognizes’ impairment loss measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows of credit enhancement factors discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The credit enhancement factors include financial guarantee and net of collateral. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreased and such decrease is objectively related to an event occurred after the impairment was recognised, the amount of impairment loss recognised previously shall be reversed by adjusting the allowance for doubtful debts. The reversal shall not cause a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds the amortized cost of the period before recognition of the impairment loss. The amount of reversal shall be recognised in profit or loss.
E. Above-mentioned assessments on loans and receivables are performed in accordance with “Regulations Governing the Procedures for Banking Institutions to Evaluate Assets and Deal with Non-performing/Non-accrual Loans” as issued by the FSC, as well as “Financial-Supervisory-Banks Letter No. 10410001840” issued on April 23, 2015 relating to the strengthening of domestic banks’ risk endurance to management of exposures in China.
(10) Derivatives
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the contract date and subsequently measured by fair value. The fair value includes the public quotation in an active market or the latest trade price (e.g., Exchange-traded options), and evaluation techniques such as cash flow discounting model or option pricing model (e.g., Swap contract and foreign exchange contracts). All derivatives are recognised as assets when the fair value is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative.
Hybrid contract refers to financial instruments of the embedded derivatives. Economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivatives and the economic characteristics of the main contract should be examined for the embedded derivatives. If the two are not closely correlated and the main contract is not a financial asset or liability at fair value through profit and loss, the main contract and embedded derivatives should be respectively recognised unless the overall hybrid contract is designated as assets or liabilities at fair value through profit and loss. The embedded derivatives are the financial assets or liabilities at fair value through profit and loss.
(11) Investments accounted for under the equity method
Associates are all entities over which the Bank and its subsidiaries have significant influence but not control. In general, it is presumed that the investor has significant influence, if an investor holds, directly or indirectly 20 percent or more of the voting power of the investee. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognised at cost.
The Bank and its subsidiaries’ share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in profits or loss, and its share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income. When the Bank and its subsidiaries’ share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Bank and its subsidiaries do not recognize further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
Unrealised gains on transactions between the Bank and its subsidiaries and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Bank and its subsidiaries’ interest in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Bank and its subsidiaries.
When changes in an associate’s equity that are not recognised in profit or loss or other comprehensive income of the associates and such changes not affecting the Bank and its subsidiaries’ ownership percentage of the associate, the Bank and its subsidiaries recognised the Bank and its subsidiaries’ share of change in equity of the associate in ‘capital reserve’ in proportion to its ownership.
When the bank and its subsidiaries disposes its investment in an associate, if it loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised as other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are transferred to profit or loss. If it still retains significant influence over this associate, then the amounts previously recognised as other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are transferred to profit or loss proportionately.
(12) Property and equipment
The property and equipment of the Bank and its subsidiaries are recognised on the basis of the historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Historical cost includes all costs directly attributable to the acquisition of the assets.
Such assets are subsequently measured using the cost model. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Bank and its subsidiaries and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Land is not affected by depreciation. Depreciation for other assets is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets till residual value, if each part of an item of property and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item must be depreciated separately.
33 Annual Report 2015
-33-
The assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. If expectations for the assets’ residual values and useful lives differ from previous estimates or the patterns of consumption of the assets’ future economic benefits embodied in the assets have changed significantly, any change is accounted for as a change in estimate under IAS 8, ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’, from the date of the change. The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:
Item Year Buildings and accessory equipment 1~60 Machinery and computer equipment 1~20 Transportation equipment 1~10 Other equipment 3~10
(13) Investment property
The properties held by the Bank and its subsidiaries, with an intention to obtain long-term rental profit or capital increase or both and not being used by any other enterprises of the consolidated entities, are classified as investment property. Investment property includes the office building and land leased out in a form of operating lease.
Part of the property may be held by the Bank and its subsidiaries and the remaining will be used to generate rental income or capital appreciation. If the property held by the Bank and its subsidiaries can be sold individually, then the accounting treatment should be made respectively.
When the future economic benefit related to the investment property is highly likely to flow into the Bank and its subsidiaries and the costs can be reliably measured, the investment property shall be recognised as assets. When the future economic benefit generated from subsequent costs is highly likely to flow into the entity and the costs can be reliably measured, the subsequent expenses of the assets shall be capitalized. All maintenance cost are recognised as incurred in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
An investment property is stated initially at its cost and measured subsequently using the cost model. The depreciation method, remaining useful life and residual value should apply the same rules as applicable for property and equipment.
(14) Foreclosed properties
Foreclosed properties are stated at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less selling cost on the financial reporting date.
(15) Impairment of non-financial assets
The Bank and its subsidiaries assess at each balance sheet date the recoverable amounts of those assets where there is an indication that they are impaired. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less cost to sell or value in use. When the circumstances or reasons for recognizing impairment loss for an asset in prior years no longer exist or diminish, the impairment loss shall be reversed. The increased carrying amount due to reversal should not be more than what the depreciated or amortized historical cost would have been if the impairment had not been recognised.
(16) Provisions for liabilities, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
When all the following criteria are met, the Bank and its subsidiaries shall recognize a provision:
A. A present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event;
B. It is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; and
C. The amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated.
If there are several similar obligations, the outflow of economic benefit as a result of settlement is determined based on the overall obligation. Provisions for liabilities should be recognised when the outflow of economic benefits is probable in order to settle the obligation as a whole even if the outflow of economic benefits from any one of the obligation is remote.
Provisions are measured by the present value of expense which is required for settling the anticipated obligation. The pre-tax discount rate is used with timely adjustment that reflects the current market assessments on the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation.
Contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past event, whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Bank and its subsidiaries. Or it could be a present obligation as a result of past event but the payment is not probable or the amount cannot be measured reliably. The Bank and its subsidiaries did not recognize any contingent liabilities but made appropriate disclosure in compliance with relevant regulations.
Contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past event, whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Bank and its subsidiaries. The Bank and its subsidiaries did not recognize any contingent assets and made appropriate disclosure in compliance with relevant regulations when the economic inflow is probable.
(17) Financial guarantee contracts
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the Bank and its subsidiaries to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument.
The Bank and its subsidiaries initially recognize financial guarantee contracts at fair value on the date of issuance. The Bank and its subsidiaries charge a service fee when the contract is signed and therefore the service fee income charged is the fair value at the date that the financial guarantee contract is signed. Service fee received in advance is recognised in deferred accounts and amortized through straight-line method during the contract term.
-34-
Subsequently, the Bank and its subsidiaries should measure the financial guarantee contract issued at the higher of:
A. The amount determined in accordance with IAS 37; and
B. The amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, cumulative amortization recognised in accordance with IAS 18, “Revenue”.
The best estimate of the liability amount of a financial guarantee contract requires management to exercise their judgment combined with historical loss data based on the similar transaction experiences.
The increase in liabilities due to financial guarantee contract is recognised in “provision for loan losses and guarantee reserve”.
Assessment of above guarantee reserve is in accordance with “Regulations Governing the Procedures for Banking Institutions to Evaluate Assets and Deal with Non-performing/ Non-accrual Loans” announced by the FSC.
(18) Employee benefits
A. Short-term employee benefits
The Bank and its subsidiaries should recognize the undiscounted amount of the short-term benefits expected to be paid in the future as expenses in the period when the employees render service.
B. Employee preferential savings
The Bank provides preferential interest rate for employees, including flat preferential savings for current employees and flat preferential savings for retired employees and current employees. The difference gap compared to market interest rate is deemed as employee benefits.
According to Regulation Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Public Banks, the preferential monthly interest paid to current employees is calculated based on accrual basis, and the difference between the preferential interest rate and the market interest rate is recognised under “employee benefit expense”. According to Article 30 of “Regulation Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Public Banks”, the excessive interest arising from the interest rate upon retirement agreed with the employees in excess of general market interest rate should be recognised in accordance with IAS 19, “Employee Benefits”, as endorsed by the FSC. However, various parameters should be in compliance with competent authorities if indicated otherwise.
C. Termination benefits
Termination benefits are employee benefits provided in exchange for the termination of employment as a result from either the decisions of the Bank and its subsidiaries to terminate an employee’s employment before the normal retirement date, or an employee’s decision to accept an offer of redundancy benefits in exchange for the termination of employment. The Bank and its subsidiaries recognizes expense as it can no longer withdraw an offer of termination benefits or it recognises relating restructuring costs, whichever is earlier.
Benefits that are expected to be due more than 12 months after balance sheet date shall be discounted to their present value.
D. Post employment benefit
The pension plan of the Bank and its subsidiaries includes both Defined Benefit Plan and Defined Contribution Plan. In addition, defined contribution plan is adopted for employees working overseas according to the local regulations.
(A) Defined Contribution Plan
The contributions are recognised as pension expenses when they are due on an accrual basis. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent of a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments.
(B) Defined Benefit Plan
a. Net obligation under a defined benefit plan is defined as the present value of an amount of pension benefits that employees will receive on retirement for their services with the Bank and its subsidiaries in current period or prior periods. The liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit net obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The rate used to discount is determined by using interest rates of high-quality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension liability; when there is no deep market in high-quality corporate bonds, the Bank and its subsidiaries uses interest rates of government bonds (at the balance sheet date) instead.
b. Remeasurement arising on defined benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise and are recorded as retained earnings
c. Past-service costs are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
E. Employees’ compensation and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration
Employees’ compensation and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration are recognised as expenses and liabilities, provided that such recognition is required under legal obligation or constructive obligation and those amounts can be reliably estimated. Any difference between the resolved amounts and the subsequently actual distributed amounts is accounted for as changes in estimates. If employee compensation is distributed by shares, the Bank and its subsidiaries calculate the number of shares based on the closing price at the previous day of the Board of Directors’ resolution day.
34Mega ICBC
-34-
Subsequently, the Bank and its subsidiaries should measure the financial guarantee contract issued at the higher of:
A. The amount determined in accordance with IAS 37; and
B. The amount initially recognised less, when appropriate, cumulative amortization recognised in accordance with IAS 18, “Revenue”.
The best estimate of the liability amount of a financial guarantee contract requires management to exercise their judgment combined with historical loss data based on the similar transaction experiences.
The increase in liabilities due to financial guarantee contract is recognised in “provision for loan losses and guarantee reserve”.
Assessment of above guarantee reserve is in accordance with “Regulations Governing the Procedures for Banking Institutions to Evaluate Assets and Deal with Non-performing/ Non-accrual Loans” announced by the FSC.
(18) Employee benefits
A. Short-term employee benefits
The Bank and its subsidiaries should recognize the undiscounted amount of the short-term benefits expected to be paid in the future as expenses in the period when the employees render service.
B. Employee preferential savings
The Bank provides preferential interest rate for employees, including flat preferential savings for current employees and flat preferential savings for retired employees and current employees. The difference gap compared to market interest rate is deemed as employee benefits.
According to Regulation Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Public Banks, the preferential monthly interest paid to current employees is calculated based on accrual basis, and the difference between the preferential interest rate and the market interest rate is recognised under “employee benefit expense”. According to Article 30 of “Regulation Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Public Banks”, the excessive interest arising from the interest rate upon retirement agreed with the employees in excess of general market interest rate should be recognised in accordance with IAS 19, “Employee Benefits”, as endorsed by the FSC. However, various parameters should be in compliance with competent authorities if indicated otherwise.
C. Termination benefits
Termination benefits are employee benefits provided in exchange for the termination of employment as a result from either the decisions of the Bank and its subsidiaries to terminate an employee’s employment before the normal retirement date, or an employee’s decision to accept an offer of redundancy benefits in exchange for the termination of employment. The Bank and its subsidiaries recognizes expense as it can no longer withdraw an offer of termination benefits or it recognises relating restructuring costs, whichever is earlier.
Benefits that are expected to be due more than 12 months after balance sheet date shall be discounted to their present value.
D. Post employment benefit
The pension plan of the Bank and its subsidiaries includes both Defined Benefit Plan and Defined Contribution Plan. In addition, defined contribution plan is adopted for employees working overseas according to the local regulations.
(A) Defined Contribution Plan
The contributions are recognised as pension expenses when they are due on an accrual basis. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent of a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments.
(B) Defined Benefit Plan
a. Net obligation under a defined benefit plan is defined as the present value of an amount of pension benefits that employees will receive on retirement for their services with the Bank and its subsidiaries in current period or prior periods. The liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit net obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The rate used to discount is determined by using interest rates of high-quality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension liability; when there is no deep market in high-quality corporate bonds, the Bank and its subsidiaries uses interest rates of government bonds (at the balance sheet date) instead.
b. Remeasurement arising on defined benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise and are recorded as retained earnings
c. Past-service costs are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
E. Employees’ compensation and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration
Employees’ compensation and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration are recognised as expenses and liabilities, provided that such recognition is required under legal obligation or constructive obligation and those amounts can be reliably estimated. Any difference between the resolved amounts and the subsequently actual distributed amounts is accounted for as changes in estimates. If employee compensation is distributed by shares, the Bank and its subsidiaries calculate the number of shares based on the closing price at the previous day of the Board of Directors’ resolution day.
35 Annual Report 2015

(19) Employee share-based payment
For the equity-settled share-based payment arrangements, the employee services received are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted at the grant date, and are recognised as compensation cost over the vesting period, with a corresponding adjustment to equity. The fair value of the equity instruments granted shall reflect the impact of market vesting conditions and non-market vesting conditions. Compensation cost is subject to adjustment based on the service conditions that are expected to be satisfied and the estimates of the number of equity instruments that are expected to vest under the non-market vesting conditions at each balance sheet date. And ultimately, the amount of compensation cost recognised is based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.
(20) Revenue and expense
Income and expense of the Bank and its subsidiaries are recognised as incurred. Expenses consist of employee benefit expense, depreciation and amortization expense and other business and administration expenses. Dividend revenues are recognised within ‘Revenues other than interest, net’ in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income when the right to receive dividends is assured.
A. Other than those classified as financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit and loss, all the interest income and interest expense generated from interest-bearing financial assets are calculated by effective interest rate according to relevant regulations and recognised as “interest income” and “interest expense” in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
B. Service fee income and expense are recognised upon the completion of services of loans or other services; service fee earned from performing significant items shall be recognised upon the completion of the service, such as syndication loan service fee received from sponsor, service fee income and expense of subsequent services of loans are amortized or included in the calculation of effective interest rate of loans and receivables during the service period. When determining whether the agreed rate of interest should be adjusted to effective interest rate for interest-earning loans and receivables, the loans and receivables may be measured by the initial amounts if the effects on discount are insignificant according to the “Regulation Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Public Banks”.
(21) Income tax
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or items recognised directly in equity, in which cases the tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity.
The current income tax expense is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the countries where the Bank and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in accordance with applicable tax regulations. It establishes provisions where appropriate based on the amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. An additional 10% tax is levied on the unappropriated retained earnings and is recorded as income tax expense in the year the stockholders resolve to retain the earnings.
Deferred income tax is recognised, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated balance sheet. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Bank and its subsidiaries and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized. At each balance sheet date, unrecognised and recognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed.
Current income tax assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset on the balance sheet when the entity has the legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and they are levied by the same taxation authority on either the same entity or different entities that intend to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
(22) Share capital and dividends
Dividends on ordinary shares are recognised in the financial statements in the period in which they are approved by the shareholders. Cash dividends are recorded as liabilities. Stock dividends are recorded as stock dividends to be distributed and are reclassified to ordinary shares on the effective date of new shares issuance; they are not recognised and only disclosed as subsequent event in the notes if the dividend declaration date is later than the consolidated balance sheet date.
(23) Operating segments
Information of operating segments of the Bank and its subsidiaries is reported in the same method as the internal management report provided to the chief operating decision-maker (CODM). The CODM is the person or Group in charge of allocating resources to operating segments and evaluating their performance. The (CODM) of the Bank and its subsidiaries is the Board of Directors.
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND KEY SOURCES OF ASSUMPTION UNCERTAINTY
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make critical judgements in applying the Bank and its subsidiaries’ accounting policies and make critical assumptions and estimates concerning future events. Assumptions and estimates may differ from the actual results and are continually evaluated and adjusted based on historical experience and other factors.
Management’s critical judgements in applying the Bank and its subsidiaries’ accounting policies that have significant impact on the consolidated financial statements are outlined below:
-36-
(1) Financial instruments (including derivative instruments) valuation
If there is no quoted market price available in an active market for financial instruments, a valuation technique will be adopted to measure the fair value. If there are observable data of similar financial instruments in the market, then the fair value of the underlying financial instruments is estimated by reference to the observable data; otherwise, the fair value is estimated using the appropriate pricing models which are commonly used in the market. The assumptions used in the pricing models should refer to the observable data in the market. However, when those data are not observable from the market and/or the assumptions used in the pricing models are more subjective, the fair value of the financial instruments may be estimated based on historical data or other information. The pricing models used by the Bank and its subsidiaries are all evaluated and tested periodically to ensure the outputs may reflect the actual data and market prices. The primary assumptions used in determining the fair values of financial instruments are provided in Note 7. The management believes the pricing models and assumptions used have appropriately determined the fair values of financial instruments.
(2) Loan impairment
The Bank and its subsidiaries’ impairment evaluations are in compliance with the regulations of regulatory authorities. The Bank and its subsidiaries evaluates cash flows and impairment amounts, through model analysis and individual case assessment, on a monthly basis based on several factors, such as nature of client risk and security coverage. The Bank and its subsidiaries recognize impairment loss whenever there is observable evidence showing that impairment has occurred. This evidence includes repayment status of debtor, event that would cause delinquency in payments, and any significantly unfavorable changes in national or local economic circumstance. Future cash flows are estimated primarily based on the length of overdue time, the status of debtors, security coverage, guarantee of external institution and historical experiences. The incidence of impairment and subsequent collectability rate used in impairment evaluations are estimated based on the types of products and historical data. The Bank and its subsidiaries review the assumptions and inputs used in impairment evaluations periodically to ensure they are all reasonable
(3) Financial assets-impairment of equity investments
The Bank and its subsidiaries follow the guidance of IAS 39 to determine whether a financial asset—equity investment is impaired. This determination requires significant judgement. In making this judgement, the Bank and its subsidiaries evaluate, among other factors, the duration and extent to which the fair value of an equity investment is less than its cost and the financial health of and short-term business outlook for the investee, including factors such as industry and sector performance, changes in technology and operational and financing cash flow.
If the decline of the fair value of an individual equity investment below cost was considered significant or prolonged, the Bank and its subsidiaries would suffer a loss in its financial statements, being the transfer of the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in other comprehensive income on the impaired available-for-sale financial assets to profit or loss or being the recognition of the impairment loss on the impaired financial assets measured at cost in profit or loss.
(4) Post-employment benefit
The present value of post-employment benefit obligations are estimated based on several assumptions. Any changes in those assumptions will affect the carrying amounts of post-employment benefit obligations.
The assumptions used to determine net pension cost (revenue) comprise discount rate. The Bank and its subsidiaries determine the appropriate discount rate at the end of each year, and uses the discount rate in calculating the present value of future cash outflow of post-employment benefit obligations. The discount rate is chosen by reference to the rate of government bonds where the currency and maturity date of government bonds are in agreement with those of post-employment benefit obligations. Any changes in these assumptions could significantly impact the carrying amount of defined pension obligations.

A. Defined contribution plans
Effective July 1, 2005, the Bank has established a funded defined contribution pension plan (the “New Plan”) under the Labor Pension Act (the “Act”). Employees have the option to be covered under the New Plan. Under the New Plan, the Bank contributes monthly an amount based on 6% of the employees’ monthly salaries and wages to the employees’ individual pension accounts at the Bureau of Labor Insurance. The payment of pension benefits is based on the employees’ individual pension fund accounts and the cumulative profit in such accounts, and the employees can choose to receive such pension benefits monthly or in lump sum. The pension costs under the defined contribution pension plan for the years ended December 31, 2015and 2014 were NT$83,678 thousand and NT$77,473 thousand, respectively.
For employees working overseas, pension expenses under defined contribution plans are recognised according to the local regulations. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, pension expenses of current period were NT$21,205 thousand and NT$23,100 thousand, respectively.
B. Defined benefit plans
(A) The Bank has a defined benefit pension plan in accordance with the Labor Standards Law, covering all regular employees’ service years prior to the enforcement of the Labor Pension Act on July 1, 2005 and service years thereafter of employees who chose to continue to be subject to the pension mechanism under the Law. Under the defined benefit pension plan, two units are accrued for each year of service for the first 15 years and one unit for each additional year thereafter, subject to a maximum of 45 units. Pension benefits are based on the number of units accrued and the average monthly salaries and wages of the last 6 months prior to retirement. The Bank and its subsidiaries contribute monthly an amount equal to 8.211% of the employees’ monthly salaries and wages to the retirement fund deposited with Bank of Taiwan, the trustee, under the name of the independent retirement fund committee. Also, the Bank would assess the balance in the aforementioned labor pension reserve account by the end of December 31, every year. If the account balance is insufficient to pay the pension calculated by the aforementioned method, to the employees expected to be qualified for retirement next year, the Bank will make contributions to cover the deficit by next March.

(D) The Bank of Taiwan was commissioned to manage the Fund of the Bank’s defined benefit pension plan in accordance with the Fund’s annual investment and utilization plan and the “Regulations for Revenues, Expenditures, Safeguard and Utilization of the Labor Retirement Fund” (Article 6: The scope of utilization for the Fund includes deposit in domestic or foreign financial institutions, investment in domestic or foreign listed, over-the-counter, or private placement equity securities, investment in domestic or foreign real estate securitization products, etc.), and the performance of fund utilization is supervised by the Labor Funds Supervisory Committee. With regard to the utilization of the Fund, its minimum earnings in the annual distributions on the final financial statements shall be no less than the earnings attainable from the amounts accrued from two-year time deposits with the interest rates offered by local banks. If the earnings is less than aforementioned rates, government shall make payment for the deficit after being authorized by the Regulator. The Bank has no right to participate in managing and operating that fund and hence the Bank is unable to disclose the classification of plan asset fair value in accordance with IAS 19 paragraph 142. The composition of fair value of plan assets as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 is given in the Annual Labor Retirement Fund Utilisation Report announced by the government.

(E) The principal actuarial assumptions used were as follows:
2015 2014 Discount rate 1.25% 1.75% Rate of future salary increases 2.00% 1.75%
Assumptions regarding future mortality rate are set based on the 5th Chart of Life Span Estimate Used by the Taiwan Life Insurance Enterprises.
Because the main actuarial assumption changed, the present value of defined benefit obligation is affected. The analysis was as follows:
Discount rate Future salary increases Increase 0.25% Decrease 0.25% Increase 0.25% Decrease 0.25%

The sensitivity analysis above is based on other conditions that are unchanged but only one assumption is changed. In practice, more than one assumption may change all at once. The method of analysing sensitivity and the method of calculating net pension liability in the balance sheet are the same.
(F) Expected contributions to the defined benefit pension plans of the Bank for the year ending December 31, 2016 amounts to NT$420,000 thousand.
(G) As of December 31, 2015, the weighted average duration of that retirement plan is 8.75 years.
C.

A. The current year's earnings, if any, shall first be used to pay all taxes and offset prior year's operating loss, and the remaining amount should then be set aside as legal reserve and special reserve in accordance with provisions under the applicable laws and regulations. 2.4% of the remaining earnings (including reversible special reserve) are then distributed as bonuses to employees.
However, in accordance with the Company Act amended in May 20, 2015, the Bank shall distribute employee compensation, based on the distributable profit of the current year, in a fixed amount or a ratio of profits. If the Bank has accumulated deficit, earnings should be channeled to cover losses. The Bank may, by a resolution adopted by a majority vote at a meeting of the Board of Directors attended by two-thirds of the total number of directors, have the profit distributable as employees' compensation distributed in the form of shares or in cash; and in addition thereto a report of such distribution shall be submitted to the shareholders' meeting. Qualification requirements of employees, including the employees of subsidiaries of the Bank meeting certain specific requirements, entitled to receive aforementioned stock or cash may be specified in the Articles of Incorporation. The Board of Directors of the Bank has approved the amended Articles of Incorporation of the Bank on February 5, 2016. According to the amended articles, a ratio of distributable profit of the current year, after covering accumulated losses, shall be distributed as employees’ compensation. In case there are earnings at the end of each fiscal year, the employees’ compensation of the Bank shall be 1.7% of the amount of net profit before income tax and employees’ compensation, which , in any event, shall not be less than 2.4% of the aggregate amount of the balance of earnings after taxes deduct the amount of the legal reserve and special reserve (or plus the reversible special reserve in accordance with relevant laws and regulations) at the end of each fiscal year, provided that the accumulated losses of the Bank in previous fiscal years have been covered. The amended articles will be resolved in the shareholders’ meeting in 2016.
B . For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, employees’ compensation (bonus) was accrued at NT$523,000 thousand and NT$436,084 thousand, respectively. The above-mentioned amounts were recognised in salary expenses.
For the year ended December 31, 2015, employees’ compensation was estimated and accrued based on 1.7% of current earnings. The employees’ compensation resolved by the Board of Directors was NT$523,141 thousand, which resulted in a difference of NT$141 thousand as compared to the recognised amounts in the 2015 financial statements. The difference is accounted for as a change in estimate and has been adjusted in the profit or loss of 2016. The above-mentioned employees’ compensation will be distributed in the form of cash.
For the year ended December 31, 2014, employees’ bonus was estimated and accrued based on the current year income after taxes and the multiplier stipulated in the Articles of Incorporation, after taking into account other factors such as legal reserve. The difference between employees’ bonus as resolved by the stockholders at the stockholders’ meeting and the amount recognised in the 2014 financial statements was NT$275 thousand, which is accounted for as a change in estimate and has been adjusted in the profit or loss of 2015.
Information about employees’ compensation (bonus) of the Bank as resolved by the Board of Directors and the shareholders at the shareholders’ meeting will be posted in the “Market Observation Post System” at the website of the Taiwan Stock Exchange.

7. FAIR VALUE INFORMATION OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
(1) Overview
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Financial instruments are recorded at fair value upon their initial recognition, where often fair value refers to the transaction price; for subsequent measurements, other than a portion of financial instruments being measured at amortized cost, fair value is elected for measurements. The best evidence for fair value is a public quote in an active market. If the market of a financial instrument is not active, the Bank elects valuation techniques or references Bloomberg or the quotes of counterparties to measure the fair value of the financial instrument. In addition, through the valuation process, information on the counterparty’s and the Bank’s credit risk is also considered.
(2) Fair value information of financial instruments
Except for those listed in the table below, the carrying amounts of certain financial instruments held by the Bank and its subsidiaries (such as cash and cash equivalents, due from Central Bank and call loans to other banks, investments in bills and bonds under resale agreement, accounts receivable, bills discounted and loans, held-to-maturity financial assets-Central Bank time deposits, due to Central Bank and other banks, funds borrowed from the Central Bank and other banks, bills and bonds payable under repurchase agreements, accounts payable, deposits and remittances, financial bonds payable, and other financial liabilities) are approximate to their fair values (please refer to Note 7(4)). The fair value information of financial instruments measured at fair value is provided in Note 7(5).
NT$ Book Value Fair Value December 31, 2015 Held-to-maturity financial assets - investments in bonds $ 28,158,540 $ 28,111,006
US$ Book Value Fair Value December 31, 2015 Held-to-maturity financial assets - investments in bonds $ 856,195 $ 854,750
NT$ Book Value Fair Value December 31, 2014 Held-to-maturity financial assets - investments in bonds $ 18,595,040 $ 18,618,174
The fair values of the above-mentioned held-to-maturity financial assets are classified as Level 1 and Level 2.
(3) Financial instruments measured at fair value
If the market quotation from the Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation, brokers, underwriters, Industrial Trade Unions, pricing service agencies or competent authorities can be frequently obtained on time, and the price represents the actual and frequent transactions at arm’s length, then a financial instrument is deemed to have an active market. If the above condition cannot be met, the market is deemed inactive. In general, significant price variance between the purchase price and selling price, significantly increasing price variance or extremely low trading volume are all indicators of an inactive market.
If the quoted market price of a financial instrument is available in an active market, the quoted price is the fair value, usually the fair value is measured using the market price, interest rate, foreign exchange central parity rate shown in Reuters quotation system, partially using the quoted prices from Bloomberg, OTC, and the basis for valuation is maintained consistently. If there is no quoted market price for reference, a valuation technique or quoted price offer by the counterparties will be adopted to measure the fair value. Fair value measured by a valuation technique is usually estimated by reference to the fair values of other financial instruments with similar terms and characteristics, or by using cash flows discounting method, or using model calculation based on the market information (such as yield rate curves from OTC, average interest rate of commercial papers from Reuters) available on the balance sheet date.
When assessing non-standardized financial instruments with lower complexity, derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swap contracts, foreign exchange swap contracts, options, the Bank and its subsidiaries use valuation techniques and models which are extensively used by the market to estimate their fair value. The parameters used in the valuation model for these kinds of financial instruments usually use the observable information as the input.
For more complicated financial instruments, such as debt instruments with embedded derivative instruments or securitization products, the Bank and its subsidiaries develop its own valuation models to estimate fair value by reference to the valuation techniques and methods which are extensively used by the same trade. Parts of parameters used in these valuation models are not observable from the market; they must be estimated by using some assumptions.
58Mega ICBC
-58-
A. NTD Central Government Bond: the yield rates across different contract length and one-hundred price bulletined by Over-The-Counter (hereinafter OTC) are used.
B. NTD corporate bonds, financial debentures, government bonds, bond-type beneficiary securities and designated financial debentures issued by the Group: the present value of future estimated cash flows is calculated by using the yield rate curve from OTC.
C. NTD short-term bills and NTD bill-type beneficiary securities: the present value of future estimated cash flows of NTD and USD short-term bills is calculated by using average interest rate of commercial papers and TAIFX3 central parity rate from Reuters, respectively.
D. Foreign securities: quoted prices from Bloomberg are adopted.
E. Listed stock: the closing price being listed in TSE is adopted.
F. Unlisted stock and domestic/foreign partnership-type fund: If the objective recently has representative trading, its trading price might be the best estimate of its fair value. If the objective has comparable listed trades, its fair value can be estimated by using appropriate market method, such as P/E method, P/B method, EV/EBIT method or EBITDA×EV method, taking into account the operation condition of the comparable listed companies, most recent one month trading information and its liquidity. And if the objective has no comparable instruments or its fair value cannot be estimated using market method, other valuation technique, such as net assets method or income approach, is used to estimate its fair value.
G. Funds: net assets value is adopted.
H. Derivative financial instruments:
(A) Foreign exchange forward contract, currency swaps, forward rate agreement, interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps: the discounting future cash flow is adopted.
(B) Options: Black-Scholes model is mainly adopted for valuation.
(C) Some structured derivative financial instruments are valued by using BGM model.
(D) Some foreign-currency derivatives are valued by using the quoted prices from Bloomberg.
(4) Financial instruments not measured at fair value through profit or loss
A. In relation to cash and cash equivalents, investments in bills and bonds under resale agreements, due from the Central Bank and call loans to banks, receivables, refundable deposits, due to the Central Bank and financial institutions, funds borrowed from the Central Bank and other banks, bills and bonds payable under repurchase agreements, payables and deposits received, the book value of the financial instruments which have a short maturity period will be considered as their fair value. While the maturities are quite closed or the future payment or receipt is closed to the carrying amount, the carrying amount at the consolidated balance sheet date is used to estimate the fair value.
B. Interest rates of the Bank and its subsidiaries’ bills discounted and loans (including non-performing loans) are generally based on the benchmark interest rate plus or minus certain adjustment to reflect the market interest rate. Thus, their fair values are based on the book value after adjustments of estimated recoverability. Fair values for long-term loans with fixed interest rates shall be estimated using their discounted values of expected future cash flows. However, as such loans account for only a small portion of all loans, book value was used to estimate the fair value.
C. When held-to-maturity financial assets have a quoted market price available in an active market, the fair value is determined using the market price. If there is no quoted market price for reference, a valuation technique or quoted price offer by the counterparties will be adopted to measure the fair value.
D. The fair value of deposits and remittances are represented by the book value.
E. The coupon rate of convertible bonds and bank debentures issued by the Bank and its subsidiaries is equivalent to market interest rate; therefore, fair value estimated based on the present value of future cash flows is equivalent to book value.
F. For other financial assets, such as investments in debt instruments without active market, financial assets measured at cost and investments accounted for under the equity method, as they have no quoted price in active market and their valuation results by using different valuation methods are significantly different, their fair value cannot be measured reliably and is not disclosed here.
(5) Level information of financial instrument at fair value
A. Three definitions of the Bank and its subsidiaries’ financial instruments at fair value
(A) Level 1
Level 1 are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market refers to a market in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. The Bank and its subsidiaries’ investment in listed stock, beneficiary certificates, popular Taiwan government bonds and the derivatives with a quoted price in an active market, are deemed as Level 1.
(B) Level 2
Level 2 inputs are observable prices other than quoted prices included in Level 1, including observable direct (e.g. prices) or indirect (e.g. those inferred prom prices) inputs in an active market. The Bank and its subsidiaries’ investments in non-popular government bonds, corporate bonds, bank debentures, convertible bonds and most derivative instruments and corporate bonds issued by the Bank and its subsidiaries belong to this category.
59 Annual Report 2015

(C) Level 3
Level 3 inputs are inputs for assets or liabilities that are unobservable in the market (unobservable inputs, e.g. option pricing model using history volatility rate, because history volatility rate cannot represent the expectation value of market participants for future volatility rate).

The procedures for credit risk management of the Bank and its subsidiaries and related measurement approaches are outlined below:
-62-
(A) Credit extensions
Classification of credit assets and internal risk ratings are as follows:
a. Classification of credit assets
Corporate credit risk is measured by using the borrower’s default probability model with logistic regression analysis in which financial and non-financial factors are incorporated, which predicts the default probability of borrower within the next year. Besides, the extent of risk is measured by using credit rating table and taking into account the characteristics and scale of business. Lending examination and post management are dealt with based on clients’ credit rating. Individual borrowers are grouped into different risk levels and managed by using application scoring and behavior scoring cards. Back-testing is conducted on internal models regularly; those models are subject to adjustments when necessary. Clients’ credit ratings are reviewed annually and subject to adjustments when there is significant change in their credit ratings.
b. Internal risk rating
The internal rating for lending is classified as excellent, satisfactory, fair and weak, and corresponds to the Standard & Poor’s rating as follows:
Internal risk rating Excellent Satisfactory Fair Weak Corresponding to S&P AAA~BBB- BB+~ BB- B+ B and below
(B) Interbank deposits and call loans
Before trading with other banks, the Bank and its subsidiaries must assess the credit of the counterparty; generally referencing external rating agencies, assets and scale of equity of the counterparty, and the credit rating of the counterparty’s country of origin in order to set different transaction limits, as well as periodically examining the stock prices and ratings of the counterparty in order to monitor the risks of counterparty.
(C) Bonds and derivative instruments
The limits of bonds purchased by the Bank and its subsidiaries are set by considering the credit rating of bond issuers or guarantors (ex. S&P, Moody’s, Fitch, Taiwan ratings or Fitch Taiwan), which needs to meet the minimum rating set by the Board of (Managing) Directors, and country risk at the application, changes in CDS quoted prices and market condition.
The Bank and its subsidiaries have set trading units and overall total risk limit for non-hedging derivative instruments, and use positive trading contract evaluation and the potential exposure as the basis for calculating credit risk and add the limit to the total credit risk limit for monitoring.
(D) Asset quality
The Bank and its subsidiaries have set the minimum requirements and examination procedures for the quality of financial assets of each type, and controls risk concentration of assets portfolios of each type based on the risk limit of each type. The Bank and its subsidiaries also monitor the changes in assets quality regularly during the duration of the assets and takes measures to maintain their quality. According to the policies and regulations, reserve for losses is provided adequately for those assets to actually reflect and safeguard the value of owners’ equity.
(E) Impairment of financial assets and provision for reserves
The Bank and its subsidiaries assess at each balance sheet date whether a financial asset is impaired. If there is objective evidence that an event that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset has an impact on the future cash flows of the financial asset, the impairment loss on the financial asset should be recognised.
The objective evidence of an impairment loss is as follows:
Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;
The issuer or debtor has breached the contract;
The Creditor, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, granted the borrower a concession;
It becomes probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;
The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties; or observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial asset in the group, including:
Adverse changes are in the payment status of borrowers in the group; or adverse changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the group.
Financial assets that are not impaired are included in the group of financial assets sharing similar credit risk characteristics for collective assessment. Financial assets that are assessed individually with impairment recognised need not be included in the collective assessment.
The amount of the impairment loss is the difference between the financial assets’ book value and the estimated future cash flow discounted using the original effective interest rate. The present value of estimated future cash flows must reflect the cash flows that might generate from collaterals less acquisition or selling cost regarding the collateral.
Financial assets through collective assessment are grouped based on similar credit risk characteristics, such as types of assets, industry and collaterals. Such credit risk characteristics represent the ability of the debtors to pay all the amounts at maturities according to the contract term, which is related to future cash flows of group of financial assets. The future cash flows of group of financial assets for collective assessment are estimated based on historical impairment experience, reflecting the change in observable data for each period, and the estimation of the future cash flows should move in the same direction. The Bank and its subsidiairies review the assumptions and methods for estimation of the future cash flows regularly.
63 Annual Report 2015

For loan loss provision and guarantee reserve, the Bank and its subsidiaries have established the regulations for assets assessment and loss reserve. According to the regulations of the Financial Supervisory Commission for banks, bills companies and insurance companies, all assets in balance sheets and off balance sheets are classified as five categories. For credit assets on balance sheets and off balance sheets, in addition to normal credit assets which shall be classified as "Category One", the remaining unsound credit assets that required special attention shall be evaluated based on the status of the creditor’s the length of time overdue financial situation, and loan collaterals, and classified as "Category Two". Assets that are substandard shall be classified as "Category Three". Assets that are doubtful shall be classified as "Category Four", and assets for which there is loss shall be classified as "Category Five”. "Category Two" to "Category Five” shall be assessed one by one for possible loss and set aside sufficient loss provision. And loss provision shall be also set aside for "Category One" proportionately in accordance with regulations of competent authorities.
C. Policies of hedging and mitigation of credit risk
To reduce credit risk, the Bank and it subsidiaries adopt the following policies:
(A) Obtaining collaterals and guarantors
The Bank and its subsidiaries have established policies on collateral management, mortgage loan line setting, scope of collaterals, collateral valuation, collateral management and disposal. Besides, protection of creditor’s right, collateral terms and offsetting terms are all addressed in the credit extension contract in case of any occurrence of credit event, of which the amount may be deductible, loan repayment schedule may be shortened or deemed as matured, or the debtor’s deposits can be used to offset its liabilities to mitigate credit risks.
(B) Loan limit control
To avoid extreme credit risk concentration, subsidiaries established policies for control of credit risk concentration and set up credit extension limit for a single individual, a single group, a single industry, a single area/country, and single collateral.
(C) Master netting arrangements
The Bank’s and its subsidiaries’ transactions predominantly settle at gross amount. A portion of transactions have entered into master netting arrangements with counterparties or upon the event of a default may cease all transactions with the counterparties and settle by net amount in order to further reduce credit risk.
(D) Other credit enhancements
The Bank and its subsidiaries have offsetting terms within their credit contracts, which clearly define that all deposits in the Bank and its subsidiaries from debtors may be offset against their liabilities upon a credit event, and have guarantees from third parites or financial institutions, in order to decrease credit risk.
D. Maximum credit risk exposure
The maximum credit risk exposure of financial assets within the balance sheets is presented in book values. The maximum credit risk exposure of guarantees and irrevocable commitments off balance sheets is calculated based on their limits. Letters of credit and the guarantee refer to those issued but not used.
(A) The maximum credit risk exposure of financial assets of the Bank and its subsidiaries excluding collaterals or other credit enhancement instruments is approximately equal to book value. The maximum exposure to credit risk of items off balance sheet is listed below:

Note 1: Collaterals include property, movable property, certification of authorization, securities, certificates of deposits, letter of credit and rights in property.
(1) Value of collaterals pledged for assets that arise from lending is the lower of collateral value/ market value and maximum exposure amount. If the collateral value cannot be obtained, value of collaterals must be assessed.
(2) Value of collaterals pledged for assets that do not arise from lending is the lower of market value and maximum exposure amount.
Note 2: Details of improvement to net settlement master netting arrangements and other credits are provided in Note 8(3) C. (C) and C. (D).
E. Credit risk concentration
Extreme credit risk concentration will enhance risk degree, such as large amount of risk exposure concentrated on one credit product, one client, or minor clients, or a group of clients in the same industry or with similar business or in the same area or with the same risk characteristics. When adverse economic changes occur, a financial institution may incur a significant loss.
To avoid extreme credit risk concentration, the Bank and its subsidiaries have regulated credit limit and management rules for single client, single business group and large amount of risk exposure. The Bank and its subsidiaries have to monitor and control the credit risk concentration within the limit. Status of credit risk concentration must be shown in the regular risk report by industry, area/country, collateral and other forms.

(B) The Bank and its subsidiaries’ aging analysis of financial assets that were past due but not impaired
Financial assets might be past due but not impaired due to borrower’s processing delay or other administrative reasons. According to subsidiaries’ internal management rules for assets assessment, financial assets which are past due within 90 days are not regarded as impaired unless there is objective evidence that the financial assets are impaired. There are very few conditions where financial assets are past due over 90 days but not impaired.

(4) Liquidity risk
A. Definition and sources of liquidity risk
The Bank and its subsidiaries define liquidity risk as the risk of financial loss to the Bank and its subsidiaries arising from default by any companies of financial instruments on the payment obligations. For example, the companies are default on payment obligations, such as withdrawals paid to depositors and loans repayment. Or, the company is unable to obtain funds within a certain period at reasonable cost in response to increased demand for assets.
B. Procedures for liquidity risk management and measurement of liquidity risk
The Bank and its subsidiaries are mainly engaged in industry related to finance. Therefore, the management for capital liquidity is very important to the Bank and its subsidiaries. The objectives for liquidity risk management are to maintain reasonable liquidity based on business development plans, ensure capability of daily payment obligations and meet business growth requirements with adequate high-liquid assets and capability of raising funds from others in case of emergency.
The financial department of the Bank and its subsidiaries is responsible for daily capital liquidity management. According to the limits authorized by the Board of (Managing) Directors, the Bank and its subsidiaries monitor the indexes of liquidity risk, execute capital procurement trading and reports the conditions of capital liquidity to the management. The Bank and its subsidiaries also reports the liquidity risk control to the Fund Management Committee, Asset & Liability and Risk Management Committee and the Board of (Managing) Directors regularly, and performs regular liquidity stress-testing to ensure sufficient capital to meet the funding requirements for increase in assets and payment obligations.
The Bank and its subsidiaries daily perform intensive control over capital sources and the period for fund gaps and liquidity risk management. Future cash flows are estimated based on the financial liability contracts due date and expected cash collection date of financial assets. The Bank and its subsidiaries also take into account the extent of practical utilization of capital in contingent liabilities such as use of loan limits, guarantees and commitments.
Assets used to pay obligations and loan commitments including cash and cash equivalents, due from Central Bank and call loans to other banks, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, investments in bills and bonds under resale agreement, accounts receivable, bills discounted and loans, available-for-sale financial assets, held-to-maturity financial assets, and other financial assets are held in response to unexpected cash outflows.
The liquidity management policies of the Bank and its subsidiaries include:
(A) Maintain the ability to perform all payment obligations immediately.
(B) Maintain solid assets/liabilities structure to ensure medium and long-term liquidity safety.
(C) Diversify capital sources and absorb stable core depositors to avoid depending on certain large-sum depositors or minor borrowers.
(D) Avoid potential unknown loss risk which will increase capital cost and capital procurement pressure.
(E) Conduct due date management to ensure that cash inflow is greater than cash outflow in short term.
(F) Keep liquidity ratio.
(G) Keep legal ratio for high-quality, high-liquidity assets.
(H) Be aware of the liquidity, safety and diversity of financial instruments.
(I) The Bank and its subsidiaries have capital emergency plans, which are reviewed regularly.
(J) The overseas branches of the Bank must obey the regulations of ROC and the local supervisory authorities. Otherwise, they will be penalized for violation of these regulations.
C. Maturity date analysis for financial assets and liabilities held for liquidity risk management
The table below lists analysis for cash inflow and outflow of the financial assets and liabilities held by the Bank and its subsidiaries for liquidity risk management based on the remaining period at the financial reporting date to the contractual maturity date.

B. Objective of market risk management
The objective of the Bank’s and its subsidiaries’ market risk management is to confine risks within a tolerable scope to avoid the fluctuations of financial product prices impacting furture returns and the values of assets and liabilities.
C. Market risk management policies and procedures
The Board of (Managing) Directors decided the risk tolerant limits, position limits, and loss limits. Market risk management comprises trading book control and banking book control. Trading book operation mainly pertains to the positions held by bills and securities firms due to market making. Policies for financial instrument trading of bank are based on back-to-back operation principle. Banking book is based on held-to-maturity principle and adopts hedging measures.
D. Procedures for market risk management

(B) Financial Risk Management Center not only prepares statement of market risk position and profit and loss of various financial instruments but regularly compiles securities investment performance evaluation and reports to the Board of (Managing) Directors for the Board’s knowledge of the Bank’s risk control over securities investment. Risk Management Department summarizes and
-80-
analyzes information from finance department on a daily basis. If there is any early warning indicator approaching stop-loss, Risk Management Department will request Financial Risk Management Center to inform Treasury Department of increasing attention in response to changes in market. Besides, Risk Management Department monthly summarizes and analyzes data collected from positions of various financial instruments, profit and loss assessment, analysis on risk-sensitive factors, and stress testing for senior management’s knowledge of the Bank’s market risk exposure profile.
E. Market risk measurement and control principle
(A) The Bank’s market risk report contains interest rate, exchange rate, positions of equity securities, credit default swap (CDS) and profit and loss assessment. Every transaction has limit and stop-loss provisions, which shall be submitted to approval management in accordance with the Bank’s regulations. Stop-loss limit shall be implemented as soon as a transaction reaches the threhold. If no stop-loss limit will be implemented, trading units shall immediately make statement about reasons to not implement stop-loss limit and coping plan, which shall be submitted to senior management for approval and reported to the Board of (Managing) Directors regularly.
(B) Non-hedging trading positions of derivative financial instruments are daily assessed based on the market value, whereas hedging trading positions of futures are daily assessed and others are assessed twice a month.
(C) SUMMIT information system and DW information system for market risk provides functions in relation to risk management such as real-time limits, profit and loss assessment, analysis on risk-sensitive factors, stress testing, and VaR calculation.
F. Policies and procedures of trading-book risk management
The Bank and its subsidiaries daily monitor trading-book positions, changes in risk exposures, and various risk limits, including trading rooms, traders and product line risk limits.
If trading-book financial instruments have market price, the valuation of those instruments is conducted at least one time daily using the independent source and available information. If using mathematical model valuation, the assumptions and parameters used in the model are reviewed regularly.
Risk measurement methods include VaR and sensitivity analysis.
The Bank and its subsidiaries conduct stress test on the positions of its interest rate, foreign exchange rate products, equity securities and credit default swap (CDS) on the assumptions of the monthly change in interest rate, securities market index, foreign exchange rate and CDS by 1%, 15% , 3% and 100 base points, respectively, and reports to the Asset & Liability and Risk Management Committee.
G. Trading-book interest rate risk management
T rading-book interest rate risk refers to the financial loss of the decline in values of interest rate products held due to unfavorable changes in interest rates, including securities and derivatives with interest.
The Bank and its subsidiaries interest rate products are traded mainly for hedging.
The trading group screens the credits and financial positions of issuers and selects investment objectives by judging interest rate trend and a variety of country risks and based on the authorized minimum investment criteria. The Bank and its subsidiaries set trading-book trading limits and stop-loss limits (including trading rooms, traders, trading products, counterparties, and daily and overnight limits) based on business strategies and market conditions, and measure monthly the extent of impact of interest rate risk on investment portfolios using DV01 value.
H. Banking book interest rate risk management
Banking book interest rate risk mainly comes from the unmatched maturity dates of assets and liabilities or price resetting dates, and inconsistent changes in base interest rates for assets and liabilities. The Bank and its subsidiaries’ interest rate risk mainly comes from the unmatched periods of interest-rate sensitive assets and liabilities of the Bank and its subsidaries.
As the Bank and its subsidiaries have interest-rate sensitive gaps, market interest rate fluctuations have good or bad impacts on the Bank and its subsidiaries’ earnings and cash flows.
The Bank and its subsidiaries manage Banking book interest rate risk by using repricing gap analysis. The interest-rate repricing gap analysis is to estimate the difference between the assets and liabilities with interest bearing that are to be due near or repriced within a certain period and measure the impact of interest rate change on net interest revenue. The analysis assumes assets and liabilities structure remain unchanged and there are parallel movements of interest rate curves, and excludes the customer behavior, basis risk, option characteristics of early repayment of bonds. The Bank and its subsidiaries calculate the change in net interest revenue for this year and also monitor the percentage of change in net interest revenue to the projection of net interest revenue for this year.
The Bank and its subsidiaries monthly analyze and monitor interest rate risk positions limits and various interest rate risk management indexes. If any risk management index exceeds limit, the Bank and its subsidiaries will adopt responding measures and report the analysis and monitoring results to the Fund Management Committee, the Asset & Liability and Risk Management Committee and the Board of Directors.
I. Foreign exchange risk management
Foreign exchange risk refers to the losses caused by the exchange of two different currencies at different times. The Bank and its subsidiaries’ foreign exchange risk mainly comes from its derivative instruments business such as spot foreign exchange, forward foreign exchange and foreign exchange options. The foreign exchange trading of the Bank and its subsidiaries are mainly for offsetting customers’ positions on the same day; therefore, foreign exchange risk is relatively low.
To control trading-book foreign exchange risk, subsidiaries have set trading limits and stop-loss limits for trading rooms and traders and also set the annual maximum loss limits to control the losses within the tolerable scopes.

Due to needs of proprietary, make market and tactic, etc., the Bank held equity securities within the regulations of the law. That market risk comprises the risk of individual equity security arising from the security’s market price changes and the general market risk arising from overall equity securities market price changes.
The investment operating group mainly selects blue chip stocks which have high liquidity and sets the investment price according to fundamentals and market transactions. After the investment has been approved by the investment deliberation committee, the operational personnel purchase the stock within the maximum percentage of the approved price, as the case may be.
Daily trading records, details of investment portfolios and overview of profit or loss shall report to the management and measurement of the extent of the impact of systematic risk on investment portfolios using β value monthly. The Bank and its subsidiaries generally set a stop loss, stop interest, pre-warning and exception handling requirements, and limit control to held individual stock and industry concentration.

(6) Transfer of financial assets
Transferred financial assets that are not derecognised in their entirety
In the Bank’s and its subsidiaries’ ordinary course of transactions, transferred financial assets that are not derecognised in their entirety are primarily debt securities provided as liens for the counterparty through repurchase agreements. Because such transactions are virtually secured loans and reflect a liability where the Bank and its subsidiaries are obligated to repurchase transferred assets with a fixed price in the future, for such transactions, the Bank and its subsidiaries may not use, sell or pledge such transferred financial assets within the effective period of the transactions; however, the Bank and its subsidiaries still bears the interest rate risk and credit risk, thus they are not derecognised in their entirety.
Information on financial assets and related financial liabilities at December 31, 2015 that were not derecognised in their entirety: None.
(7) Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities
The Bank and its subsidiaries have engaged in financial instrument transactions that apply the offsetting requirements in Paragraph 42 of IAS 32 as endorsed by the FSC. Financial assets and financial liabilities related to these transactions are reported at net amount on the balance sheet.
The Bank and its subsidiaries have also engaged in offsetting terms that do not conform to the IFRSs. However, they have entered into enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements with counterparties. For example: global master repurchase agreements or similar repurchase or reverse repurchase agreements. When the above-mentioned enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements are elected by both parties to be settled by net amount, settlements may be made by using the net amount after the offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities. Conversely if no such arrangements are made, settlements are made using the gross amount. However, upon the event of a default of a party, the counterparty may choose settle by net amount.
The following table lists information related to the above-mentioned offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities.
